Joining the show is Cameron Smith general counsel and vice president of implementation for the R Street Institute, where he oversees how R Street implements and communicates the policy solutions its experts develop. He also handles a wide range of the institute’s legal matters. Cameron, and his team at R Street uncovered Alabama's over zealous Alcohol (Nanny) Control board attempting to ban the sale of pitchers of Margarita's to adults. Why? Your guess is as good as ours but there may be something to do with trying to stay relevant in a world that needs no such thing as an Alcohol Control Board. Cameron explains how his team was able to, almost overnight, pressure the nanny's in Alabama to reverse their decision and let consenting adults voluntarily purchase pitchers of Margaritas once again.  Also how we can replicate the success R Street is having!
